Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Beulah Bram A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
beorhhouse Go ahead goat-head! Make fun of your Creator. That's smart.
Foreverisacastironmess I'm not exactly all that sure myself just why the really crazy and wild comedic action horror shorts such as this one do it for me, but they certainly do. I just find the hectic in-your-face colourful style to be highly appealing and a ton of fun, the ones that I've seen always seem to have just the right mix of humour, action, and dementedly creative gore gags, and this is no exception. The very idea of it is so hilariously absurd that somehow it just automatically works! I mean it's about bloody Jesus Christ himself screwing up big time when, whilst attempting to perform the 'blessed' miracle of resurrection, instead unleashes a zombie plague, and then later after eventually gaining a little courage after screaming like a woman and fleeing to the hills, it's up to Jesus and his best pal Judas to put a stop to the shambling hordes of rottenness for good in a terrifically well choreographed free-for-all of blood, guts, death and destruction!! I find the whole thing to be entertaining and I was impressed at the variety of practical effect splatter injuries that they came up with during the sequence. People complain at how fake the effects of this short look, but I don't think it would've worked any other way. How can you do something that's about Jesus fighting the undead and not have it be laughably ridiculous? lf you've watched it to the point where Jesus hysterically busts out the fish and starts using them as deadly projectile weapons and you still haven't got that it's not meant to be taken seriously, then it's probably just not for you! And if you're going into this gory little extravaganza expecting to be scared or something then you're gonna be disappointed because this is the type of thing that is intentionally bad, as it progresses the madcap violence only gets funnier. My favourite part is when the skeleton of the fish is used like a makeshift chainsaw! Also it was such a charmingly weird touch how they decided to just throw cowboy zombies into the mix pretty much for the hell of it! Very freaking strange and bizarre, but also a blast and very fun, very fast paced, and also very likely containing the most blood you've ever seen. I recommend this to the hardcore zombie and gruesome carnage lovers looking for a crazy fun time. Excellente!!!
preppy-3 Very very very VERY gory Spanish short with English subtitles. Jesus helps Lazarus rise from the dead. Very good but Lazarus is now a flesh-eating zombie! Jesus screams like a girl and, with Judas following, runs to escape. However they're surrounded by Roman soldier zombies and cowboy (???) zombies. What follows is an incredibly gory (and incredibly funny) fight between Jesus and Judas and zombies! The Catholic Church will probably go crazy if it ever gets a look at this! It tears into Jesus and the Bible with glee with tons of gore and blood. The special effects are excellent and look very realistic. This is basically a must see for gore fans who aren't loyal Catholics. A 10 all the way.
George Live Jesus Christ resurrects Lazarus, who promptly begins to chomp on the multitudes. It is left to the son of God and his faithful disciple, Judas, to fight off the resulting zombie horde with multiplied fishes.PROS: In case the synopsis didn't advertise it, this wildly funny film plays the Biblical story for bloody laughs. The inventive gore, which rapidly escalates throughout the picture, is matched only by Jesus' madcap use of fish as weaponry. The poster advertises the Monty Python connection, but the festival audience I saw it with got the Peter Jackson connection. "Fist" features fountains of the red stuff, but it's so ridiculously over the top that no one will take offense. And who can resist the cowboy zombies? CONS: This isn't the most original idea. "Jesus Christ, Vampire Hunter" springs immediately to mind. Despite the recycling, however, "Fist" is the best made and most fun of the bunch.
